Foam suppression of respirable coal dust. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7295636
This research program was conducted to determine if respirable coal dust emanating from a continuous-mining machine can be suppressed more effectively by a high-expansion foam than by the water sprays conventionally used. A high-expansion foam system was developed and tested on a continuous-mining machine under actual operation conditions. The utility of the system was demonstrated. (GRA)
